In questi giorni le discussioni più accese su WebMasterWorld riguarda la rimozione del page rank nella toolbar di Google.
Ecco cosa dice a riguardo Adam Lasnik di Google:
“PageRank is an important signal and remains one of many effective measures of quality, but admittedly it’s often viewed and used/abused in ways that run contrary to the interests of searchers and webmasters. Still, a lot of folks find the PR information useful; it provides a great incentive to try out our toolbar and explore its other features as well. […]”
“[…] Given that many of you aren’t so fond of PR info in the toolbar, I’d love to know what feature you woudl like to see. Mandatory criteria:
- Would have to provide actionable info for webmasters
- Would need to be useful and interesting for the ~99.9% of users who aren’t webmasters”
